Project-specific information takes precedence over any other general information found in this manual. Scoreboard Controllers Daktronics four-sided Tuff Sport scoreboards are designed for use with the All Sport 5000 ® series control consoles. This console uses keyboard overlays (sport inserts) to control numerous sports and scoreboard models.
Scoreboard Label Serial and model numbers of a Daktronics scoreboard can be found on the ID label on the display, similar to that shown in Figure 1. Figure 1: Display ID Label Please list the model number, display serial number, and the date this display became operational in the blanks provided on the second page of this manual.
Power or signal jack Power or signal plug for the opposite jack Following the Replacement Parts List is the Daktronics Exchange Policy and the Repair & Return Program. Refer to these instructions if replacing or repairing any display component. Product Safety Approval Daktronics Tuff Sport scoreboards are ETL-listed, tested to CSA standards and CE-labeled for indoor use.
Be sure that the installation complies with local building codes. Note: Daktronics does not assume any liability for any installation derived from the information provided in this manual or installations designed and installed by others.
There are two primary methods of installing a center-hung scoreboard: creating a static-hung system or using a hoist. Each method has its own benefits and drawbacks. Refer to the suspension publication, DD1627665, in Appendix F, and call Daktronics for help in making the best choice for your installation.
Daktronics will inspect hoists installed by Daktronics. Daktronics will certify the scoreboard weight but will require a liability waiver signed by the customer before the scoreboard is shipped. Once the hoist is installed according to the specifications of the hoist manufacturer and the building engineer, refer to Section ...
Optional Lower Ad Panel Attachment Reference Drawing: Bottom 4-Side Ad Panel Mounting ............Drawing A-107664 This step is required only if the scoreboard has ad panels or auxiliary scoreboard displays to be attached to the bottom. Refer to Drawing A-107664 in Appendix C. Support brackets are attached to the bottom of the frame, and the ad panel sections are to be attached to these brackets.
Optional Top Ad Panel or Message Center Attachment Reference Drawing: Top 4-Side Ad Panel Mounting ............... Drawing A-107665 Note: Make sure all power and signal wires are connected on top of the scoreboard before mounting an ad panel/message center – it will be very difficult to make these connections once upper display tiers have been added.
Drawing A-181903 and Drawing A-181935 in Appendix E show recommended component specifications of cable slings (these are not typically provided by Daktronics). Note: Refer to Drawing A-268195 for BB-2146 and BB-2147 models.

The hoist installer must set upper and lower primary limits and all safety limits. Daktronics recommends maintaining a minimum of 2' (610 mm) between the scoreboard and the nearest obstruction. WARNING! Never raise or lower the scoreboard with personnel or equipment underneath!
It is the responsibility of the electrical contractor to ensure that all electrical work meets or exceeds local and national codes. Daktronics engineering staff must approve all changes or the warranty will be void. Installation Overview Electrical installation for four-sided scoreboards involves routing power and control signal wiring through separate conduit or wire ways to the scoreboard location, as well as routing power and signal wiring from section to section.
The diagram shown in Figure 5 illustrates a typical wireless setup between the first scoreboard section and the control system. Refer to Section 6 .2 for more information about the wireless radio option. Figure 5: Wireless Installation Power/Signal Connections Between Sections Reference Drawing: Ad Panel/Message Center Hookup Overview, 4-Side ......

Scoreboard power and signal connectors are located on top of the scoreboard cabinet. Input cables should be routed to the left, and output cables should be routed to the right (as viewed from the front). The scoreboard section that will receive main power/signal is designated “Face A”;...
Connect the scoreboard to earth ground. Proper grounding assures reliable equipment operation and protects the equipment against damaging electrical disturbances and lightning. Daktronics recommends a resistance-to-ground of 10 ohms or less. The electrical contractor performing the electrical installation can verify ground resistance. Daktronics Sales and Service personnel can also provide this service.
SS Series 20mm Indoor Scoreboard Message Centers Installation & Operation Manual (DD1564453). At a minimum, use a paired, 22 AWG shielded cable (Daktronics part # W-1077) and connect the cable to a dual " J-box at the control console end.

Problem Possible Cause Solution/Items to Check Move the console 20-30 feet from the scoreboard and test again. Verify that both the console and scoreboard antennae are securely tightened and in a vertical position. Replace the radio receiver. Check that the scoreboard is receiving 120 (or 230) VAC power.
Problem Possible Cause Solution/Items to Check Bad digit or driver (see solution on previous page) Incorrect sport code (see solution on previous page) Incorrect driver address (see solution on previous page) Another console’s radio signal could Wrong console controlling Scoreboard works, but some scoreboard be transmitting to the scoreboard.
Replacing Digits LEDs are embedded in a circuit board that is mounted to the back of the digit panel. Do not attempt to remove individual LEDs. In the case of a malfunctioning LED or digit segment, replace the entire digit circuit board. The process of replacing digits varies by whether it is a PanaView digit or UniView digit (Figure 10).
UniView To replace a UniView digit circuit board (Figure 12): Open the digit panel as described in Section 5 .2. Disconnect the power/signal connector from the back of the digit by squeezing together the locking tabs and pulling the connector free. Use a "...
LED Drivers In each scoreboard, one or more LED drivers perform the task of switching LEDs on and off. LED drivers are located inside of a driver enclosure. Refer to Figure 13 to view the location and components of a Tuff Sport driver enclosure. Figure 13: Driver Enclosure Location &...

The Daktronics Exchange Program is a quick, economical service for replacing key components in need of repair. If a component fails, Daktronics sends a replacement part to the customer who, in turn, returns the failed component to Daktronics. This not only saves money but also decreases equipment downtime.
Repair & Return Program For items not subject to exchange, Daktronics offers a Repair & Return Program. To send a part for repair, follow these steps: Call or fax Daktronics Customer Service: Refer to the appropriate market number in the chart listed on the previous page.
Visual Horn Indicator (VHI) In addition to the horn, Daktronics offers both incandescent and LED visual horn indicators that light up when the buzzer sounds. To install the VHI, users must tap into the existing horn wiring to provide power and signal. For more information about installing the VHI options, refer to the Visual Horn Indicator Installation Instructions (ED-13397) or the BB-2133 LED Indicator Installation Instructions (ED-13806).
Changeable Captions Team name and statistics caption kits contain hardware for one caption only and consist of an upper caption retainer, a lower caption retainer, a changeable caption panel and screws. The standard HOME and GUEST captions are applied directly to the face of the scoreboard. Team name captions are on changeable panels that fit into retainers mounted above and below the standard captions.
Section 7: TNMC Troubleshooting & Maintenance IMPORTANT NOTES: 1. Always disconnect scoreboard power before doing any repair/maintenance work on the message centers. 2. Permit only qualified service personnel to access internal display electronics. 3. Disconnect power when not using the scoreboard.

SUSPENSION SYSTEMS FOR CENTERHUNG SCOREBOARDS Daktronics centerhung scoreboards can be suspended in two different ways. A static suspension system holds the scoreboard securely in place using cables attached to the structural framework of a building. This technique works well with smaller scoreboards and in applications where the scoreboard has no need for lowering and raising.
